春节期间，给长辈拜年时，经常会聊到，现在的利率时代太低了。 的确，当活期存款利率已经是0开头，对于老百姓来说，把钱存在银行获取微不足道的利息，确实意义 不大了。 与银行活期相比，货币基金有两大优势：T+0或T+1的高流动性，能随时满足应急需求；收益率普遍在 1%-1.5%之间，是活期存款的数倍。 普通人需要建立一个流动性资金池，规模约等于3-6个月的生活支出。这部分钱不该追求高收益，而应 注重安全与灵活。货币基金完美契合这一需求，它让闲钱不再"沉睡"。 具体选择时可以适当注意基金规模、稳定性及手续费。一般来说，规模大、运作成熟的基金抗风险能力 更强，收益率波动更小。 可是，多数普通人并不适合高风险的投资。那么，他们的"闲钱"应该如何进行配置，才能在相对低风险 的前提下，追求一个体验感较好的预期收益呢？ 01 货币基金：活期存款的最佳替代 当银行活期存款利率低至0.05%时，资金躺在活期账户里几乎等于闲置。以余额宝、零钱通为代表的货 币基金是"活期存款"的最佳替代品。 普通家庭配置5%-10%的资产于黄金是合理的，可通过实物金条、积存金或黄金ETF等方式实现。此 外，也可以学习中国央行，采取每月定投的方式投资黄 ...

Core Viewpoint - The current low deposit rates and the maturity of a large number of high-interest fixed deposits are leading to a significant shift in residents' savings, raising questions about whether savings-type insurance products can become the main channel for absorbing these funds [1][4]. Group 1: Deposit Maturity and Market Trends - A large-scale maturity of residents' fixed deposits is expected, with estimates indicating that by 2026, the maturity scale will reach 37.9 trillion yuan, an increase of 4.3 trillion yuan from 2025, marking the highest level in five years [3]. - Different institutions predict varying figures for the maturity of fixed deposits, with estimates ranging from 57 trillion yuan to 32 trillion yuan, primarily concentrated in the first quarter of 2026 [3]. - There is a consensus among analysts that 2026 will witness an unprecedented volume of fixed deposit maturities, creating a potential shift in savings behavior [3]. Group 2: Changes in Deposit Products - The issuance of large-denomination certificates of deposit (CDs) is showing a significant trend towards short-term products, with major banks offering rates below 1% for 1-month and 3-month CDs [4]. - The attractiveness of large-denomination CDs has diminished, leading to a phenomenon of "deposit migration" among residents, which presents an opportunity for savings-type insurance products to meet wealth allocation needs [4]. Group 3: Insurance Product Interest Rates - The maximum guaranteed interest rate for ordinary life insurance products has been reduced from 2.5% to 2% as of September 2025, yet these products still offer a significant rate advantage compared to bank deposit rates [5]. - The latest research value for the maximum guaranteed interest rate is 1.89%, reflecting a slight decline, but it remains above the threshold that would trigger further reductions [6]. Group 4: Shift to Floating Income Structures - The market is shifting from traditional fixed-income products to dividend-type insurance products, which help insurance companies mitigate interest rate risk and enhance operational stability [7]. - Dividend-type insurance products offer a dual income structure of guaranteed and floating returns, catering to residents' needs for stable growth and inflation protection in a low-interest environment [7]. Group 5: Consumer Demand and Preferences - High-net-worth individuals are increasingly focused on wealth transfer and risk isolation through insurance trusts and large annuities, while ordinary workers prioritize savings for retirement and education [8]. - There is a growing demand for insurance products that provide comprehensive financial services, including health management and retirement services, alongside traditional benefits [8]. - Recent trends indicate that many individuals, particularly older adults, are seeking stable savings options, with a portion of their funds likely to be allocated to insurance products for long-term stable returns [8].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating The provided content does not mention the industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since Q4 last year, there have been strong concerns about the supply of ultra - long bonds in the market. In January this year, the issuance scale of ultra - long government bonds increased significantly year - on - year, with the increment mainly from new special bonds, indicating a decent demand for capital for major project construction at the beginning of the year. The central bank's relatively active liquidity injection and banks' increased purchases at the ultra - long end have alleviated market concerns to some extent [3]. - From the perspective of achieving the annual economic target, the annual fiscal increment may exceed market expectations, and fiscal policies may be supplemented in the second half of the year. It is estimated that the net financing of government bonds in 2026 will be 15.1 trillion yuan, and the issuance of ultra - long government bonds will be 7.12 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 0.7 trillion yuan. For Q1, the issuance of ultra - long government bonds is expected to be 2.24 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 416.7 billion yuan, with certain supply pressure in February and March [3]. - Insurance is likely to have a good start, with an expected annual premium growth of 6.6% and the growth rate of the balance of funds utilization remaining at around 15%. It is estimated that in 2026, the proportion of ultra - long bonds allocated by insurance in the annual issuance of ultra - long bonds will drop to about 31%, and the proportion in its own bond investment will remain basically flat at about 71%, corresponding to an investment scale of about 2.2 trillion yuan, basically the same as in 2025 [3]. - It is estimated that the investment scale of commercial banks in ultra - long bonds in 2026 will be about 4.82 trillion yuan, accounting for about 67.7% of the annual issuance of ultra - long bonds, a year - on - year increase of 0.66 trillion yuan [3]. - For trading institutions, based on a neutral judgment of the interest rate trend, the investment scale of funds and securities firms in ultra - long bonds may be higher than that in 2025 but lower than that in 2024, totaling about 10 billion yuan [3]. - The 30 - 10 - year term spread in 2025 mainly widened due to the contraction of trading desks' demand for ultra - long bonds and frictions in the trading process, rather than being mainly determined by primary supply [3]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 How is the supply of ultra - long government bonds this year calculated according to the upper limit? - It is estimated that the net financing of government bonds in 2026 will be 15.1 trillion yuan, including 7.143 trillion yuan for treasury bonds and 7.938 trillion yuan for local bonds. In terms of issuance, the issuance of general treasury bonds will be 14.1377 trillion yuan, special treasury bonds 2 trillion yuan, new general bonds 80 billion yuan, new special bonds 550 billion yuan, special refinancing bonds 200 billion yuan, and ordinary refinancing bonds 325.8 billion yuan [7]. - The issuance of ultra - long government bonds in 2026 is expected to be 7.12 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 0.7 trillion yuan. Among them, the issuance of ultra - long treasury bonds will be 1.74 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 225 billion yuan, and the issuance of ultra - long local bonds will be 5.38 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 475 billion yuan [8]. - For Q1, the issuance of ultra - long government bonds is expected to be 2.24 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 416.7 billion yuan. The issuance of ultra - long treasury bonds in Q1 is usually low because special treasury bonds need to be approved by the Two Sessions and are expected to start issuing at the end of April. The planned issuance of local bonds in Q1 is about 2.38 trillion yuan, with a relatively high refinancing ratio, and the issuance of replacement bonds is expected to be in the front, making room for new bonds for construction projects later. The issuance progress of new special bonds is expected to be faster than last year [9][10]. 3.2 How is the demand for ultra - long bonds? 3.2.1 Insurance - In 2025, the premium income of insurance companies from January to November was 5.76 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 7.56%. Property insurance increased by 2.48% year - on - year, with auto insurance as the main source of income, accounting for over 52% and highly correlated with the growth rate of vehicle ownership. Personal insurance increased by 9.2% year - on - year, with life insurance accounting for about 77% and growing by 11.47%, mainly driven by the popularity of savings - type insurance products [12][13]. - In 2026, the probability of a "good start" for premium income is high. Favorable factors include high - interest fixed - deposit maturities, the correlation between the stock market's good start in January and premium income growth, and a low base in 2025. Unfavorable factors include pressure on traditional life insurance and the over - consumption of demand due to previous "panic - buying" promotions. It is expected that the annual premium income will achieve stable growth, with property insurance growing by about 2% and personal insurance by about 8%, and the overall insurance premium income increasing by about 6.6% [14][15]. - At the end of Q3 2025, the balance of insurance funds utilization was 37.46 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 16.5%. In 2026, it is expected that the year - on - year growth rate of the balance of insurance funds utilization will decline slightly to 15%. The proportion of bank deposits is expected to drop to 7%, the proportion of stock investment to rise to 11.5%, the proportion of fund investment to rise to 6%, the proportion of long - term equity investment to be stable at 8%, and the proportion of other investments to drop to 16%. The proportion of bonds will remain stable at 51.5%, with a net increment of about 3.1 trillion yuan [20][21]. - From 2022 - 2025, the net purchases of ultra - long bonds by insurance institutions in the secondary market were 0.48, 0.73, 1.71, and 2.28 trillion yuan respectively, accounting for 13.62%, 20.7%, 31.3%, and 35.5% of the annual issuance of ultra - long bonds, and 48%, 41%, 67%, and 72% of the annual bond investment respectively. In 2026, it is expected that the proportion of ultra - long bonds in the annual issuance of ultra - long bonds will drop from 35.5% in 2025 to about 31%, and the proportion in its own bond investment will drop slightly from 72% in 2025 to 71%, corresponding to an investment scale of about 2.2 trillion yuan [25][26]. 3.2.2 Banks - In 2025, the proportion of banks' bond allocation increased significantly. The government bond custody volume of commercial banks was 63.85 trillion yuan, accounting for 67.17% of the outstanding government bonds. The incremental custody of government bonds by commercial banks in 2025 was 10.8 trillion yuan, accounting for 78% of the net financing of government bonds in 2025 [29]. - It is estimated that in 2026, the passive allocation scale of commercial banks for government bonds will be 10.56 trillion yuan, and the scale of bond purchases will be 17.56 trillion yuan. The scale of ultra - long bonds that commercial banks need to undertake may be 4.48 trillion yuan. It is also expected that the excess allocation scale of commercial banks for ultra - long bonds in 2026 will increase slightly to 0.34 trillion yuan compared with last year. Overall, the scale of commercial banks' allocation of ultra - long bonds in 2026 is estimated to be about 4.82 trillion yuan [30][32]. - After the implementation of the redemption new rules at the beginning of this year, part of the banks' entrusted - out investment has been transferred back to self - operated allocation. The probability of using this part of the funds to increase the allocation of ultra - long bonds is not high due to certain indicator pressures [33]. 3.2.3 Trading Institutions - In 2025, securities firms mainly increased their allocation of treasury bonds, reduced their allocation of local bonds, and shortened the duration of government bonds. The investment scale of securities firms in ultra - long bonds decreased by 1.493 billion yuan. In 2026, it is expected that the investment scale of securities firms in ultra - long bonds will be basically the same as in 2025 [40][41]. - At the end of 2025, non - monetary funds held 12.51 trillion yuan in bond investments. In 2025, funds only net - bought 5.82 billion yuan of ultra - long interest - rate bonds. In 2026, due to the implementation of the fund sales new rules and concerns about the cancellation of tax exemption, the liability side of bond - type funds is unstable. It is expected that the investment scale of funds in ultra - long bonds will be higher than that in 2025 but lower than that in 2024, about 10 billion yuan [41][42]. 3.3 Does the 30 - 10 - year term spread depend on primary supply? - The widening of the 30y - 10y treasury bond spread in 2025 mainly occurred in the second half of the year, mainly due to the significant improvement in the stock market sentiment, the fund sales new rules, and the interest - rate adjustment, which led to the selling of ultra - long bonds by trading - like desks. If primary supply were the decisive factor, the spread should have widened in Q2 2025 [45]. - The widening of the 30y - 10y local bond spread also shows that primary supply is not the main influencing factor, as the power of allocation desks is sufficient to hedge the selling pressure [45]. - For the secondary interest - rate trend, the willingness of trading desks to increase holdings and short - term frictions seem to be more crucial [48].
